My husband and I are planning a trip to include our three children, ages 21, 23, and 24. Would the Sedona area be a good choice? Any suggestions on accomodations or other attractions to see, we are willing to drive a ways. Also, is the weather unbearable in July- have never been to this part of the country before and wonder if it is worth it in the heat of summer.

Yes, it is very, very hot in July. Most folks stay indoors for the heat of the day and get active around sunset. In general, Sedona would be a fantastic place to visit if your children are active and enjoy the outdoors, art, and native american history.

Well, I'm not your kids age but I've been coming to AZ since that age and now I live here.

First, the heat of Sedona, is NOT the heat of phoenix in july. Yes, days will be sunny and warm, possibly with thunderstorms in the late afternoon/evening. At night it will cool off reasonably. If you can take the heat/humidity of NC in July, Sedona will feel great to you. Not nearly as humid.

This weeks fire has put a damper on some activities. Slide Rock state park which they will love was closed, may still be. Should be reopening soon. I've heard some of the Jeep tours have been cancelled, they will love those too!

The majority of shopping in Sedona, is artsy and expensive, they will tire of that (unless they are all female!)

They will enjoy the college town feel of Flagstaff (about 45 minutes north) so make sure to make it there. If they are hikers, I can give you directions to a great hike (7 miles roundtrip, pretty easy) to a great swimming hole surrounded by red rock cliffs that the local young adults "cliff jump" into the water below. The hike begins about 25 minutes outside of Sedona.

Don't forget the old mining town of Jerome. If your kids are male, they will enjoy walking around that town a lot more than Sedona. There is an old brothel turned into a giftstore that pays homage to its brothel past. Sure they will get a kick out of that.
